Brainwashed

Americans in particular but others as well need to stop letting the media, politicians, and society in general brainwash them into believing through repeated assertions as truth that Islam is a propensity towards violence and most Muslims are unjustly violent people.

Brainwash: to make people believe only what you want them to believe by continually telling them that it is true and preventing any other information from reaching them. (Cambridge Dictionary)

The roughly 1.8 billion Muslims throughout the world have absolutely nothing to do with unjust violence in terms of their religion and in general as both the Qur’an and statistics overwhelmingly prove.

2:256 There is no compulsion in religion: true guidance has become distinct from error, so whoever rejects false gods and believes in God has grasped the firmest hand-hold, one that will never break. God is all hearing and all knowing.

4:135 O you who have believed, be persistently standing firm in justice, witnesses for Allah, even if it be against yourselves or parents and relatives. Whether one is rich or poor, Allah is more worthy of both. So follow not [personal] inclination, lest you not be just. And if you distort [your testimony] or refuse [to give it], then indeed Allah is ever, with what you do, Acquainted.
